No, CSS Selectors don't allow this. They can only step down, not up. You could do the equivalent in JavaScript, or... well, a long term strategy might be lobby browser makers to support XPath or something. So basically I don't have any good advice for you. .Matthew Cruickshank http://holloway.co.nz/ ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
